    The new grill looks great. Sedan deliveries are rare. I have only seen them in pictures.

    I bought Steve's old grille to finally make my '63 Ranchero into a... '63 Ranchero. Currently looks like a '62. Hopefully will get that on this spring or summer.

    Yes the grill is a beautiful thing I'm very fortunate to have received it.
    Good to have nice friends and nice to have good friends!


    In case any of you missed it before. Gina was the kind donor of the awesome grill for the delivery. Come to think of it she hasn't even ride in the car yet?? Better work on that.

    Well finally found a Tach I can live with. Got it installed and works perfect.
    Now to find a posi and some gears. The delivery runs 1750rpm @ 70mph. I think I have the stock 3:00 gears in my eigh inch rear, so I'm thinking 3:73 posi is in order.

    Steve,
    How is that tach mounted? I'd like to relocate mine to about that position. Is it mounted through the old speaker grill?

    Though I'm sure Steve will confirm this - all factory Sprint tach's were using the speaker grill screw as a mount.

    Nice tach too. Too far away the picture to tell what it is you have. What brand? Did you sell the rebuilt Sprint Tach yet? That would make a good Raffle item.
